our crazy life
Hey babes!
ALL THE BEST FOR your exams!!! As far as I know, most of you would be finishing.. soon... maybe 9 more days?
anyway, i realise.. my tuition kid likes WUZUN too!.. aha I found things like "wuzun rox!" on her assessment books lar! Then I realise something...
When we are in secondary school, most girls would have pictures of their idols in their files and... wallets too? I'm not sure.. but file is confirmed have one ...
Then when you're in JC, your love for your idol will also upgrade to a higher standard. That is, you start to fantasize abt him being your boyfrens, husbands.. or ONE of your MANY INTERNATIONAL boyfrens (u know who u are!). OR... you'll grab your poor girl/boy frens' hands whenever ur supposedly bf or husband appears on screen...
Otherwise, you would see him as your eye candy and everytime someone plays his music, your expression would somehow show that you're in love. OR... instead of having celebrity eye candies and bf, you have eye candies from school. Then your classmates will pretend to take picture of you... but actually, she's zooming in on your eye candy who was jus sitting behind u..(sounds familiar huh?)
haha,
dun u just miss the crazy days??
---------------------------------------------------
On a more serious note, it's April already! can you believe it?! two more months and i'm back to school again! I cant believe it .. but I suddenly realise... almost everyone who's in my company is either a dean lister... or some super smart ppl. Gosh... and I didn't realise it until now cos, they dun sound or look like nerds to me? (but then again, wj isn't nerd too haha and he's a dean lister)
FYP starts in July but I'm heading for Hong Kong in late June... and coming back in beginning of August. It's a one month exchange programme. I hope nothing screws up my exchange again cos I've already paid the fees. I'm not sure if it's a good choice anyway, cos I wouldn't be able to start my FYP on time... Just hope that I wun die of exhaustion during the sem.
Ja: when would u be coming back? heard you're going to aust for one month rite?
Btw, I heard the guys are going to france rite? wahah,... if im not wrong, our timing is abt the same.. hah..
okay that's all... all the best to u all!

after so much preparation..
after forcing myself to memorize 400+ drug names, classes, mechanisms, side effects...
All I can say is,
Part A: Pure memorizing. At least for this part I can safely say I got about 31 marks out of 35 for sure. Thanks to the 2 days of intensive cramming sessions I had with Andrea and Champ... and thanks to Champ's interesting way of memorizing stuff. Made us laugh till our sides split... but who knows! It actually came in useful in the exam. Completed this part in less than 30 minutes.
Part B: Pure memorizing. But also application. Choose 5 put of 6 questions. Only for 2 of the 5 I can say for sure I am really very confident. The other 3, I can only say I got about half the marks for each maybe... hopefully. It wasn't easy. And there was just too much memory work involved.
Spent hell lot of time on Part B... about an hour and a half... choosing the questions and squeezing my brain dry trying to think of what to include and what I missed out. Stupid gesture. Left with just 30 minutes for the last part, Part C, essay question.
Part C: Essay question. Application. And consolidation of all the topics. Andrea told me the day before he might come out with something that links every single topic together and make us write an essay. I laughed it off and said maybe he will just give some questions on the lectures that were linked, like the heart and circulatory system lectures, and the depression lecture. And also maybe the endocrine lecture, since he kept emphasizing that it was important. Actually, I thought he might make us write an essay about dopamine since it affects a lot of organs.
BUT WHO KNOWS.... this guy is MORE SADISTIC THAN THAT.
For biology students or med students.. u will know how I felt when I saw the question..
"A hypothetical drug is administered intravenously to a laboratory rat in an experiment. Drug A.... exerts dose-dependent stimulatory muscarinic actions on all relevant tissues and organs, including the brain..... Describe the specific tissue/organ responses that are expected from Drug A's actions, based on your knowledge in pharmacology of the autonomic nervous system as well as the various organ/tissue systems. For EACH of the tissue and organ effects induced by drug A, suggest another drug (and the drug class it belongs to) that can antagonize the observed muscarinic responses, i.e. physiological antagonism of drug A."
So you think that's all... that part's fine. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that.. coz loads of drug names and classes and all just started flooding into my brain. My 15 marks was safe.
And then I saw the next sentence to the question.... and cursed out loud, "妈的..."
"For drugs that can counter the effects of drug A, muscarinic antagonists, adrenergic agonists and antagonists are NOT accepted here."
All the drug names and classes went into the recycling bin of my harddisk. Every single one that I could think of was either a muscarinic antagonist, an adrenergic agonist or antagonist. Bye bye 15 marks.
Hope I got the 10 marks for the second part at least. Glad I went thru it with Andrea and Champ the day before.
Really grateful for my study buddies this semester. They were really encouraging and were a great help to my revision. The teamwork was synergistic. Teaching each other better ways to work things out and studying... heh studying in school was really much more enjoyable than suffering alone at home. At least I have study buddies to do crazy things together with. And thanks Jimmy NONO for giving a very last minute good luck before pharm... though it didn't really work... hehe.. and thanks for my friends for being very accomodating and letting me whine and whine to them while I was mugging for this very disgusting pharm paper.
Year 2s, be warned. Pharmaco ain't as easy as it appears!

YAY! I can FINALLY post something here again!
After weeks of not being able to sign into freakin' blogger, I've finally figured out how to again! (: Oh, happiness is what I feel. Nothing much to say except that things are starting to get busy again (easter hols just ended yesterday) and I really need to buck up for the exams. 为我加油吧!
Oh yar, and FINALLY that LJW has found her conscience to send me an email... which totally made my day! And then we skyped and talked for like an hour plus cos we were both trying to procrastinate... it was great chatting to her again cos I can 变回 the 神经婆 that I am with her... and we cracked so many old jokes... (it's weird cos we've been cracking the same old ones for 5 and a half years liao but I still find them funny)... but I was SO SAD to hear that she may be in Japan when I get back (and JX may be away too!), so I won't get to see her/them until something stupid like 2008! HOW NOW BROWN COW?! I so sad... boohoohoo... I want my F4 all together... Eh btw, JX and KS, when are the 2 of you going to send me an email too? LOL.
mm, this is random, but I am eating nuts and pineapple tarts leftover from CNY (dad sent them over) now... yum. Lucky thing they have not started to rot yet... lol.
OK, better not ramble on. Here's a picture to brighten up this post:

Me and a few other medics at a Christian Medics Conference in Swanwick, Derbyshire
WJ: HELLO! Heard that you are going to France for exchange? Lol... All is not too bad here. It's getting warmer-- which is good.
KX: Wonder if you still visit this blog you M4!! Man, so old. Anw, got your reply that day but didn't text back cos it's expensive. Hope you had a good birthday! (:
KS: Blogger finally allowed me to move and so now I can blog here again! YAY! Btw, you better think of how u are going to entertain me when I get back... cos Jing and JX won't be around! 剩我们俩相依为命!Lol!
